Things Great and Small: Collections Management Policies
Price 47.50 - 50.00 USD
Collections care is a core responsibility for all museums that own, care for, or use colections. The foundation stone for good collections care is a good collections management policy. Things Great and Small is the first to comprehensively address how to write such a policy for any type of museum. Drawing on his extensive experience - as director of the University of Kansas museum studies program, collections manager at the university"s museum of natural history, and surveyor for AAM"s Museum Assessment Program - John Simmons reviews the issues that a collections management policy should address and the pros and cons of choosing one policy option over another. Developed with assistance from the AAM Registrars Committee.
